INS-11042 | Hand Edger

The Opti+ INS-11042 Hand Lens Edger is a compact tabletop machine designed for the manual grinding and finishing of ophthalmic lens edges. Its high-speed motor and combination diamond grinding wheel allow the operator to perform both rough and fine finishing with a single wheel. Designed for optical laboratories, eyewear stores, repair departments, and optometry practices, the INS-11042 combines convenient operation with a compact footprint. Its integrated water-cooling system helps control heat and remove grinding residue during lens edging. Outstanding Features High-Speed Lens Grinding The INS-11042 uses a high-speed motor to provide the consistent rotational performance required for efficient manual lens-edge grinding and finishing. Combined Rough and Fine Grinding Wheel A single diamond grinding wheel incorporates rough and fine grinding sections, allowing the operator to shape and finish lens edges without changing wheels. Manual Edge Control The handheld grinding process gives the operator direct control over lens positioning, pressure, beveling, and final edge refinement. Integrated Water-Cooling System A top water reservoir, adjustable water valve, and drainage system continuously supply water to the grinding area. This helps cool the lens and wheel while removing grinding residue. Water-Blocking Plate and Filter Sponge The stainless-steel water-blocking plate helps contain splashes, while the integrated sponge filters grinding residue before the water reaches the lower collection tank. Upper and Lower Water Containers The edger includes separate upper and lower water containers for supplying and collecting water without requiring a direct plumbing connection. Convenient Work Surface An integrated upper tray provides a convenient location for temporarily placing lenses, tools, and small optical components during the edging process. Compact Tabletop Construction Its small footprint makes the edger suitable for optical workbenches and laboratories where available counter space is limited. Stable Operation Rubber feet help keep the unit stable on the work surface while reducing movement and vibration during operation. Easy Wheel Maintenance An included oilstone stick can be used to dress and restore the grinding surface when the diamond wheel becomes less effective after extended use. Dual-Voltage Configurations The hand edger is available in electrical configurations for 100–120 V at 60 Hz or 200–240 V at 50 Hz, depending on the destination market. ✅ The Opti+ INS-11042 Hand Lens Edger combines high-speed manual grinding, rough and fine finishing, a diamond wheel, and an integrated water-cooling system in a compact and practical optical-laboratory machine.
